endings, but I dunno yet. Anyway, enjoy and review!
Disclaimer: Do you really think I would be spending my vacation writing fanfiction if I owned Lizzie McGuire. Nope. I wouldn't. So there.

Chapter 13: Special Gifts
"Gordo!" called Lizzie from the master bathroom. "We're leaving in 20 minutes and you haven't even showered yet!"
"I'll be right up hon!" Gordo replied from his office. "I'm making sure we have all the favors!"
"Ok." Lizzie responded. She went back to applying her makeup.
Meanwhile, Gordo was shuffling through the cards that went along with the gifts they were giving members of the wedding party. He was searching for a few specific ones. He opened Sam and Jo's, his own parents', Matt's and Melina's. He carefully slid a tiny piece of paper into each one and resealed them.
"Gordo!" Lizzie yelled again. "We cannot be late to our own rehearsal!"
Gordo finished up and hurried to take a shower.
15 minutes later they were loading up the Jeep.
"Okay." Lizzie remarked, surveying the trunk. "Gifts?" "Check." Gordo responded.
"Our overnight bags?"
"Check."
"Plane tickets?"
"Check."
"Programs?"
"Check." Gordo replied. "Baby?"
Lizzie laughed and placed her hand on her stomach. "Check. I think we have everything."
"Yep." Gordo agreed. "Ready to go?"
"I think so!" Lizzie replied. She smoothed her floral skirt and adjusted her sweater set. "Do I look pregnant?"
"Do I?" Gordo asked, rubbing his button down shirt.
Lizzie laughed and hit him. "Seriously?"
"You look perfect." Gordo replied. He looked at their apartment building. "You know, next time we come here, we will be husband and wife!" he observed.
Lizzie smiled. "Lets do this."
They arrived at the church only 5 minutes late, a major accomplishment. Luckily, only their parents and Matt were there.
"Hey guys!" Lizzie greeted them.
"Hi honey!" exclaimed Jo, hugging Lizzie tightly. "You look great! Are you excited?" she began her usual tirade of questions.
"Chill Mom!" Lizzie told her. "It's only the rehearsal!"
"I know." Jo replied. "I'm just so happy!"
Matt interjected. "Our little Lizzie's growing up so fast! It seems like only yesterday she was going nuts over Aaron Carter and Ethan Craft." He joked.
"That was yesterday!" Gordo joked.
Roberta Gordon scolded her son. "You have to treat her nicely. Starting tomorrow she's stuck with you for the rest of her life." She joked.
"Don't worry Mrs. Gordon. He treats me like a princess." Lizzie assured her.
Everyone laughed.
"So where is everyone?" asked Sam.
"Let's see." Lizzie thought. "Miranda, Melina and Megan should be arriving together. And Scott and Tim will be here soon I think." She replied. Making reference to the wedding party. Lizzie wanted it small. Miranda was her maid of honor, and Melina and Lizzie's older cousin Megan were her bridesmaids. Matt was Gordo's best man, and his ushers were his college roommates, Scott and Tim. Megan's little girl, Kylie, was the flower girl.
After a few moments, everyone arrived, and the rehearsal began. They practiced walking down the aisle, saying their vows, and most importantly, the kiss! Afterwards, everyone met at the Park Plaza hotel for the dinner. They would all be staying there for the night.
They all ate their dinners and talked and had fun. After desert, Gordo got up to make a toast.
"First of all, I'd like to thank our families and friends for being here tonight. Lizzie and I would not be the people we are today without you guys. Words cannot express how much we love you all and how important you are to us. Secondly, I'd like to especially thank our parents, for being so supportive and caring. Also, our best friend Miranda. Since elementary school, the three of us have been inseparable, and over the past few years, that's changed a little bit, but Miranda has continued to be an excellent friend, and we owe so much to her. And even though Lizzie and I are getting married, our lives would not be the same without her. She will always be our best friend. We love you!"
Miranda blushed, as everyone exclaimed "Hear hear!"
"I'm not going to drag on forever, but I do need to thank one more person in my little speech here. And that is my lovely fiancée, Lizzie. Lizzie has been my very best friend since we were infants. We've been through so much together, and I've always loved her. I knew when I was 12 years old that we would be together forever, and that nothing would make me happier. And now, I am marrying my best friend, the most beautiful, sweet, caring, loving person in the world. My dreams are coming true. I love you Lizzie."
"Hear hear!" everyone cheered.
Lizzie began to cry, as she got up to hug Gordo. "I love you too." She whispered in his ear.
After a while, everyone walked back up to their hotel rooms. Lizzie said goodnight to Megan and Kylie, giving them their gifts, a pearl necklace and earrings to Meg and a bracelet for Kylie. Gordo said goodnight to his friends, and gave them their gifts- cufflinks.
The remainder of the party, Jo and Sam, Roberta and Howard, Matt, Melina and Miranda returned to Jo and Sam's room to talk for a while.
"Ok." Lizzie announced, after they had settled down. "Present time!"
Lizzie gave out everyone's gifts and watched them open.
Miranda received a pearl necklace, and earrings. "I love them!"
Melina received the same. "I thought you guys could wear them tomorrow." Lizzie explained.
"Definitely!" Miranda and Melina agreed.
Matt, Sam and Howard all got cufflinks, and Jo and Roberta got tennis bracelets.
Then Gordo took something out of his pocket. "There's one more thing." He explained. He passed out an envelope to each person. "You have to open them altogether."
Lizzie eyed them suspiciously. "What are these?"
"Oh just a few surprise gifts." He responded. "One, two, three open!"
Everyone shredded the envelopes, and removed the paper inside them. Jo got hers out first. She gasped when she saw what it was. "This.this.this is."
"An ultrasound!" screamed Melina.
"Yes it is!" Jo replied.
Lizzie began to speak. "Well everyone, we're going to have a baby!" she exclaimed.
TBC!!!
REVIEW! Next chapter soon, I promise!
